James White Files Texas Self Sufficiency Act HB 568 Texas is a welfare state, they can't afford to exist without fed money. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 8410400 Montana aligned with the Dakotas could afford to exit the sinking ship. Wrong. For every dollar Texans send to the Fed, only $1 is returned to them. Texas is seriously supplementing blue state crap. Besides, if this happens, there will be no more freebies for the entitlement crowd. So, expect an exodus to the blue states of the fat walmartians. Good, get them the hell out of there and I'll move in tomorrow. |

They have consistently sold our way of life down the drain for their personal gain.. I don't think if we all got together that it would be difficult to prove Fraud and Treason on a good part of our legislaters for the past 30 years.. Now if that's the case then They owe.. We don't..

James White Files Texas Self Sufficiency Act HB 568 State Rep. James White has proposed a bill that will require the leaders of Texas to start crunching the numbers and figure out what Texas would look like if it had to be self sufficient... limited or no federal support.... OUR OWN COUNTRY.... oops, I am getting a little ahead of myself, haha. Hey, I didn't say secession but that certainly comes to mind when thinking about the federal government having a financial meltdown and cutting off most or all support to the States. Quoting: Laura Bow ... State Representative James White Files HB 568: The Texas Self Sufficiency Act AUSTIN, TEXAS-- State Representative James White has filed HB 568 or the Texas Self-Sufficiency Act. The Texas Self-Sufficiency Act creates a select committee to evaluate the effects of a possible reduction in or elimination of federal funding on the state budget due to federal fiscal policy. "Due to the fiscal dysfunction of Washington, D.C., and the fact that more than a third of our state's budget revenue comes from the federal government, Texas needs to study what it would mean if the Federal Government couldn't meet its obligations," stated Representative White.

Most people here are good workers and they take care of their families the best they can. Texas is huge, so there are variations in culture. There are many people that are from mexico, spain, and all over the world. The culture is pretty diverse in certain areas. People in Texas have worked together, and lived in communities together, and over time have become one people. Huge things are going to happen for Texas in the future. Texas will become a large bushiness capital of the U.S. and the world. The cities along the gulf of mexico will grow by expanding trade with mexico and south america. Texas has a very great destiny. |
